Laser Machines For Mould and Die Repair
Mould and die repair shops face a constant trade-off between removing a tool for welding and the downtime cost. Weihua Laser supplies cantilever YAG laser welders that repair fine areas of metal molds directly on the shop floor.
Overview
What This Industry Needs From A Laser Supplier
Mould and die repair shops face a constant trade-off between removing a tool for welding and the downtime cost. Weihua Laser supplies cantilever YAG laser welders that repair fine areas of metal molds directly on the shop floor. With a small heat-affected zone and low oxidation rate, these machines prevent the deformation issues that often follow traditional TIG repairs, allowing you to restore precision injection molding and die-casting tools without compromising their original geometry.
Pain Points
Where The Process Hurts Today
- Removing a mould from the press for repair causes costly production downtime and logistics delays
- Traditional TIG welding creates a large heat-affected zone that leads to mould deformation and stress
- High oxidation rates during welding require extensive post-processing to achieve a smooth surface finish
- Repairing fine details or deep cavities is difficult with standard torches that lack precision control
- Hard materials and specific mould steels are challenging to weld without specialized equipment
Requirements
What Buyers In This Sector Need
- A cantilever design that allows access to large, medium, and small moulds without disassembly
- Precise control over pulse width and frequency to manage heat input on delicate features
- Capability to weld various materials including mould steel, stainless steel, and aluminum
- A vision system with high magnification to accurately locate and repair fine defects
- Consistent welding depth control to build up material without affecting surrounding areas
Applications
Typical Application Scenarios
- Repairing wear and damage on injection mould cavities and cores
- Welding and restoring edges on die-casting moulds for automotive parts
- Fixing defects on precision stamping tools and engineering machinery moulds
- Repairing tire moulds and large household appliance plastic shell moulds
- Restoring bearing components and chassis parts requiring high precision

Buyer Questions
Mould and Die Repair FAQ
What materials can the WH-MW series weld?
The machines are suitable for welding a variety of mould steels, stainless steels, cymbal steels, precious metals, hard materials, and aluminum.
How deep can the laser welder build up material?
Depending on the model, the welding depth ranges from 0.1mm to 1.5mm for the WH-MW200, up to 0.1mm to 3mm for the WH-MW500.
Does the machine require a specific cooling system?
Yes, all models in the WH-MW series use an external water cooling system to maintain stable operation during welding cycles.
What vision system is included for precision work?
The standard configuration includes a 10X stereo microscope with a CCD camera display option to help operators see fine details clearly.
Can this machine handle large moulds?
The cantilever design is suitable for repairing large, medium, and small moulds, with a worktable loading ability of up to 200kg.
What is the pulse frequency range?
The WH-MW200 and WH-MW300 offer a maximum pulse frequency of <=30Hz, while the WH-MW400 and WH-MW500 reach <=40Hz and <=50Hz respectively.
